This publication provides an in-depth view of Sunset Magazine over its century of publication. Articles focus on the magazine's history and evolution, from its founding by the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1898, its survival through the Depression years, and its focus on environmental living and progressive technologies in the late 1980s and 1990s. Ultimately, the book records the vital role the magazine played in documenting Western American lifestyles, architecture, the values of its residents, and more. Lavishly illustrated, the book includes a bibliography, with over 9,000 articles separated by topics such as travel, people, the outdoors, civic and cultural affairs, the economy, food and entertaining, etc. Also included is a chronology of over 900 Sunset books, and an author-subject index.
